From the heavens
Raindrops fall to the earth
As it weeps water into the ground
Awakening the soil, shaking the nutrients anew
So that life blossoms
Within the earth, and on land.
A lone flower has risen,
From one of the raindrops, it is seen across fields
Of endless flowers.
Yet, somehow
This flower weeps purity and perfection
Attracting distant bees as they come.
Pollinating other flowers,
These bees first come to the source
Of this weeping raindrop!

A lovely poem. Your use of the prompt is perfection.
ReplyDeleteI loved the idea of something exuding purity like sap.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining us for this week's Trifecta Challenge! I really enjoyed reading on the concept of a flower in a field of flowers. I think that captures, for me, what writing is--finding the beauty in what can seem, at first glance, to be mundane. Hope to see you back again next week.
